Clone feature of True Image 2012 incompatible with Ubuntu 14.04?

Thread needs solution

Each week I make a full disk-to-disk clone of the hard drive in my PC to an external eSATA hard drive (the two drives are identical models from the same manufacturer) using the stand-alone (Linux) version of True Image Home 2012. This worked fine until I upgraded Ubuntu to version 14.04. Since then the clone fails and when I check the cloned disk I see that everything except the Ubuntu root partition is copied.

Is True Image 2012 incompatible with Ubuntu 14.04?

It seems to be...

If I format the Ubuntu partition the disk clone operation succeeds.

If I have Ubuntu installed on that partition I get these errors:

    <event code="502" id="18" level="4" line_tag="..." message="Operation with partition 'K:' was terminated.&#10;Details:&#10;&lt;indent>Block bitmap corrupted (0x70016)&#10; &#32; &#32;Tag = ...&lt;/indent>" module="1" time="...">
        <event code="22" id="19" level="4" line_tag="..." message="Block bitmap corrupted" module="7" time="..." />
    </event>

   <event code="23" id="59" level="3" line_tag="..." message="Failed to detect an operating system on the partition." module="57" time="...">

Any tips?

Hi Rob,
I've escalated your report for further investigation.

Thanks

Any new information on this? I can't make an image backup of Ubuntu 14.04 either - if I do it makes backups sector by sector, which are massive. This needs to be fixed as soon as possible.

Acronis informed me that the 2012 version is too old to get support from them.

However, I did learn from them that the 2014 version does not support EXT4 either. One is supposed to do a sector-to-sector backup as you already do.

Sorry, unfortunately no better news for us.
